Of course, whatever he has in mind he'll either not disclose in order to maintain the element of surprise over me again, or he'll only do so if I agree to contact him directly. A foot in the door. The latter is not something I can do, ever. So, where does that leave us? There is nothing he can do to take us back to 'better' times. There is no undoing this. It's a trainwreck in a tornado, and it has to be accepted that there's no way out from it anymore.
